This damage is often linked to raised eye pressure, though glaucoma can also occur with normal pressure. It can affect both adults and children and, if left untreated, may lead to permanent vision loss. At Agashe Hospital, Mumbai, our glaucoma specialists provide comprehensive glaucoma diagnosis and personalized treatment for adults as well as children.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b98c0a0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b98c0a0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What Is Glaucoma?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4fd627d elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4fd627d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glaucoma develops when the fluid inside the eye does not drain properly, leading to increased pressure that gradually damages the optic nerve.
